The entire body left the ground. All five meters and several tons of it launched into the air like a nimble beast a quarter of its size, front legs extended, mouth gaping wide. It moved with a speed and grace that had no business belonging to a creature that heavy.
Moon's eyes widened.
'It lunged at me like it weighs just a few hundred pounds rather than a few tons.'
The gap between them vanished in a heartbeat. The shadow of the beast swallowed the ground beneath Moon as it soared toward him.
Moon didn't wait for the beast to reach him.
The blue crackling lightning left his body and streaked toward the lunging beast. It struck the beast square in the chest mid-air. The creature's muscles seized up, its legs turning rigid.
Its aerial momentum died. The fearsome lunge turned into a graceless fall, the beast's massive body tilting forward as gravity reclaimed it.
Moon did not waste the opportunity to deal more damage, he channeled his mana through his staff.
